Recenzii

“Assessing English proficiency for university study focuses on post-entry English language assessment (PELA) for students in higher education. … this book would be suitable for a range of readers including EAP teachers, test developers, policy advisors and others involved in PELAs. … Read’s book can be fully utilized by all of those involved in post-entry language assessment.” (Naoki Ikeda, Papers in Language Testing and Assessment, Vol. 6 (1), 2017)
“The central topic of this book is the assessment of English language proficiency and academic literacy needs of students to enable them to cope with the demands of study at university. … This book is highly recommended. It will be an essential go-to resource not only for those with an interest in PELAs, but also for those with a broader interest in English language assessment issues.” (NewZealand Studies in Applied Linguistics (NZSAL), Vol. 22 (1), 2016)
